Athletics Facilities

A stones throw away from your classrooms and dining hall, the College's "Kingdome" is just across the Quad.

The King's gym offers one of the best free-floating hardwood surfaces in Nova Scotia, ideal for varsity athletics, intramural sports and student free-time use. With the College's expanded facilities and access to Dalplex, King's students can also enjoy excellent exposure to top-notch fitness and recreational activities.

Fitness at King's

At King's, a 2,500 square-foot fitness studio, equiped with sprung hardwood floor, is optimal for dance, aerobics and self-defence classes. The cardio fitness centre has state-of-the-art cadio equipment including treadmills, elliptical trainers, upright bikes, recumbent bikes, rowing machines, a stair climber and a cross trainer. Located in a bright space on the second floor of the athletics building, the centre's equipment can provide a complete cardio workout, rounded out by light wieghts, abdominal training and stretching areas. Our weight room also inlcudes a full range of free-weight and universal-strength training options.

  • Olympic-sized pool
  • Running track
